Thin Walls

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I keep my shoes by the door In case I need to go The hallway holds its breath When your voices start to grow I fold my little hands And stare at the floor I know the shape of storms I hear them through the wall [Pre-Chorus] Don't slam that door Don't say that line I know this house Too well by now [Chorus] I'm scared when you fight I'm scared when you fight I hold my breath Till the room goes quiet I'm scared when you fight I'm scared when you fight Please don't make me Choose a side [Verse 2] The picture on the shelf Tilts a little when you shout The spoon in the sink Sings when you walk out I want to be small I want to disappear I press my ear to the door And wish you both were here [Pre-Chorus] Don't slam that door Don't say that line I know this house Too well by now [Chorus] I'm scared when you fight I'm scared when you fight I hold my breath Till the room goes quiet I'm scared when you fight I'm scared when you fight Please don't make me Choose a side [Bridge] If I could, I'd stitch The broken words back tight I'd put your hands in mine And hold you through the night But I'm just a girl In the glow of the hall Trying to be brave While the walls take it all [Final Chorus] I'm scared when you fight I'm scared when you fight I hold my breath Till the room goes quiet I'm scared when you fight I'm scared when you fight Please don't make me Choose a side I'm scared when you fight I'm scared when you fight Stay in the room And keep it kind
